Very cool news about Boys In A Band. I hope they find their way to the west coast of the USA.

I would a agree with Workman this is great news about Boys In a Band. I feel that one of the great ambassadors to the Faroe Islands is the music.

I also saw something in Portal about the election. Is the early announcement a good thing or bad thing?

According to how it's always been before, it was supposed to be now, that the announced it. But there was a legislation, which gave them power for 2 more weeks, and due to certain events, one of the parties in the coalition (The Unionists), would pass that legislation, so the prime minister announced it right then.

This is not fundamentally changing any thing, besides prolonging certain legislations which were supposed to go through in the next 14 days.

So once the announcement is made there is no legislations to go on until the election?
